The first implementation of the HTML5 web notifications spec has landed in Firefox 22 Aurora and will make its way up the channels to land in the stable channel a few months from now. Sites can now display desktop notifications, useful for things like social networks, webmail clients and so on and so forth.Users must allow sites to display the notifications, on a site-by-site basis, so notifications won't turn into another method for shady sites to spam users.
